ヨーロッパウズラ

noun

common quail

Refers specifically to the bird species Coturnix coturnix. In everyday Japanese, the word ウズラ alone often refers to the Japanese quail, so this term is used when the European species needs to be distinguished.

• ヨーロッパウズラは渡わたり鳥どりで、冬ふゆはアフリカに移い動どうする。

  The common quail is a migratory bird that moves to Africa in winter.
